All the Science Fiction Stories and All the Books

Another list of all the stories, in the same order,
but this time the entry for each storylists which
books it was published in. (Anthologies with
works of various authors arenot included.)This list includes alternate titles as well.

I'm sure this page will have many uses. One handy one
would be for someone thinking of buying a used book online and
wanting to know what stories are in it.

I've removed all the illustrations from this page. With
literally hundreds of hyperlinks, I wanted it to load as
quickly as possible. See other pages in this section for cover
art.

As I edited this page for this revision of the website,
I was once again astounded at the work that Mike Bennett put
into this list. Of course, there may be a few errors in a work
of this magnitude -- including some I may have introduced in
editing the html code -- but I expect you'll find it useful. Do
browse through it -- it's not only a list; here and then Mike
Bennett comments as well.

In October 1964, "The Boy Who Bought Old Earth" was sculpted
into the novelThe Planet Buyerand the same process occured to "The Store Of
Heart's Desire", resulting in the novelThe Underpeople.

In February 1975, the presumed original manuscript of
"Norstrilia" was published as one. Was it the original
manuscript?

The NESFA Press version from 1994 is the
definitive version. It bundles together
"Norstrilia" along with all the text added or changed to
the original manuscript from "The Boy Who Bought Old
Earth", "The Store Of Heart's Desire", "The Planet Buyer"
and "The Underpeople".

Although it is stated in the NESFA Introduction that
"Norstrilia", as first published, had been constructed from the
two fragments, it seems unclear since the original printing
never stated the source of the manuscript and the story flowed
smoothly.

Alternate Titles: "Star-Craving Mad"
"The Boy Who Bought The Planet Earth"
"Everybody's Fond Of Money"
"Roderick Frederick Ronald Arnold William Macarthur McBan
CLI"
"The Lover Who Loved And Lost C'Mell"
"The Stars Of Experience"
